The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Justin gripped her soft hand tightly, his expression serious. "I need to discuss something with you."

In the room, Carrie lay in Yasmin's arms, her hot tears soaking Yasmin's black suit.

"Young Madam, see, I am fine. Nothing happened to me." Yasmin held the girl tightly. Her tone was light, but her eyes were filled with tears. "Those people just wanted to scare you. It's all over now... In the future, such things will never happen again."

Carrie suddenly asked softly. "Will there still be a future for me and Ryan?"

Yasmin's heart tightened, and she quickly replied, "Young Madam, don't overthink it. This isn't a big problem. Mr. Hoffman, Mr. Salvador, and Ms. Thompson will definitely handle it well. Everything will return to normal!"Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yasmin... I'm not foolish. I know why all this is happening. It's because the Hoffman family does not want me to be with Ryan." Carrie's trembling eyelashes were stained with tears, making her look particularly pitiful.

"This time... Those people hurt your left leg and kidnapped you as a small warning. Next time, they will take your life. With my condition, the Hoffman family will never accept me. Forcing Ryan to keep me by his side will only harm him."

"Young Madam! Don't think that way!" Yasmin shook her head repeatedly, her eyes red with panic. "You are the only motivation for Mr. Hoffman to live! If he loses you, what meaning is there left in his life? Wha purpose is there in fighting for power and influence?"

"My existence will only keep bringing

him trouble. He has to expend so

much energy to take care of me, and he is already exhausted." At this moment, Carrie shed her usual

childlike naivety.

Her thoughts were clear and logical, as if this ordeal had forced her to grow up faster. "I am not like my sister-in-law, who can help my second brother. I can't help Ryan and I only hold him back. I will only put you in more danger, too. You are not just a subordinate or a bodyguard. You are my sister, someone very important to me. From the beginning, I said that I didn't deserve his love. Ryan

not

deserves someone better."

"Young Madam, please, I beg you, don't give up on Mr. Hoffman, please..." Yasmin's words were jumbled and inarticulate as anxiety flooded her mind.

Carrie had long known the Hoffman

family's attitude, and she had long known how difficult it was for Ryan to shield her from the storms outside. Today's crisis was just the last straw that broke her.

"I know everything Ryan has done for me. If this continues, he will lose control sooner or later." Carrie slowly closed her aching eyes.

Memories drifted back to her grandfather's birthday banquet in the moonlit garden, where she first spent time alone with Ryan. Back then, Ryan's eyes shone brightly, outshining the stars.

But lately, those brilliant eyes seemed to have been covered with a layer of dust, weighed down with worry.

She immersed herself in the warm memories, smiling gently, tears of bitterness welling at the corners of her eyes.

"I want Ryan to return to his old self. I just want him to move forward boldly, without any worries."
